Rent & eviction protection

Is 201-235 Arballo Dr rent-controlled?

San Francisco's Rent Ordinance caps rent increases and provides eviction protection for most residential units built before 1979 with 2+ units. Here's how this building scores.

Built before 1979
Built 1942

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

Built 1942
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Initial analysis

The 66-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 201-235 Arballo Dr, owned by California State University and constructed in 1942, has undergone several significant maintenance and safety events over the years. Most notably, there was a concentrated effort to address roofing issues between 2005-2006, with multiple permits totaling over $56,000 for reroofing work. In 2012, three electric vehicle chargers were installed on the property, representing an upgrade to the building's infrastructure.

The building has experienced multiple maintenance challenges, particularly in 2011-2012, when residents reported issues including water intrusion, mold development, problems with weatherproofing, and various building surface deteriorations. These issues were formally documented in building violations and complaints, though records indicate they were eventually abated. A 2010 violation regarding an unpermitted boiler operation was also addressed. Routine housing inspections have been conducted regularly, with the most recent inspections occurring in 2014. The building has experienced several incidents requiring fire department response, primarily involving smoke detector activations, cooking-related incidents, and smoke scares, though none resulted in injuries or significant damage. Recent records show typical urban issues around the property, including noise complaints, parking violations, and maintenance concerns, with the most recent documented cases from late 2024 involving health inspections, graffiti, and other neighborhood issues.

Risk rating

How 201-235 Arballo Dr's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
87thpercentile

Out of 31 buildings in this neighborhood, 4 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.
